Theme/Purpose
Description of team’s theme and/or goalTeam Vulcan was named after both the Roman god of fire and the forge and the Star Trek Vulcans. As we develop our app, we hope to emulate the god Vulcan's cleverness and craftiness as a master inventor and innovator and to honor the Star Trek Vulcans' esteem for logic and reason. With such inspirations, our goal is to overcome challenges through logical reasoning in order to develop a creative solution.
